PLEASE NOTE: This item is “Second Quality” with one or more imperfections. This item is not “First Quality” and is sold at a discounted rate, because it does not meet our “First Quality” standard. The item pictured is an example of this pattern, NOT an image of the exact knife you will receive. While the item you receive will function as safely as any First Quality knife, it is ideal as a “user” or “tinkerer” not a collectible and is sold “as-is” with no return or refund after purchase.
What is a Second?
In general, Seconds have a “look” or “feel” that is not in line with First Quality. It will have one or more of the following imperfections: discoloration or wide variation in the handle dye, imperfect jigging, small cracks or fractures near pins, minor blade/bolster/shield imperfections like scratches or poor polish, minor blade wobble, weak or “mushy” blade stops, light pull between stops, poor blade centering (without rub), minor gapping in liners or between handle material and liners, and rough or unfinished edges or transition.
Normally, the reason why your knife was considered a second will be written on the sleeve of the box. If for some reason, there is no writing on your box – it was likely a dye or mismatched handle issue. To deter secondary markets from selling this knife at First Quality pricing, this item is marked.
